Feeling stuck in your role? Thinking about making a big move in your career or leadership journey? Not all pivots are created equal. In this empowering episode of The People Power Project Podcast, host Morgan Carey sits down with Dr. April D. Dobson — veteran, senior HR leader, author, and purpose-driven powerhouse — to talk about the art of the purposeful pivot.
Too many leaders jump ship out of burnout, fear, or frustration… only to find themselves unfulfilled again. This episode helps you pivot with intention, so your next move aligns with your mission—not just the moment.
🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
The difference between emotional reaction and a purpose-aligned pivot
How to identify if you’re in the wrong role—or just resisting growth
Why leaders need to stop playing small and face what’s no longer working
Real stories of transitions from military, government, and corporate spaces
Resilience strategies and mindset shifts for mid-career professionals
This episode is for leaders who are ready to stop surviving and start serving from their purpose—whether in HR, business, education, or entrepreneurship.
Don’t pivot without a plan. Don’t stay stuck out of fear. Let’s build your next move together.
